40956 divided by 89 
We want to divide 40956 by 89.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 89, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 40 / 89

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 40 by 89, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 40 and continue: 409 / 89

Going ahead to step 3:
409 divided by 89 is 4 with a remainder of 53.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 356 from 409 and we're left with 53.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 53, then repeat: 535 / 89

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 535 by 89, we get 6 and a remainder of 1.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 46.0
If we subtract 534 from 535, we get 1.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 16 / 89

Step 5:
If we divide 16 by 89, we get 0 and a remainder of 16.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 460.0
Subtracting 0 from 16 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 6:
160 divided by 89 is 1 with a remainder of 71.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 460.1
Subtracting 89 from 160 leaves us with 71.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 710 by 89, we get 7 and a remainder of 87.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 460.17
Deduct 623 from 710 and we're left with 87.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 870, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 89 fits into 870 9 times, leaving a remainder of 69.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 460.179
Subtracting 801 from 870 leaves us with 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
89 can be fit into 690 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 67.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 460.1797
Deduct 623 from 690 and we're left with 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
670 divided by 89 is 7 with a remainder of 47.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 460.17977
If we take 623 away from 670, we end up with 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 460.17977 and a remainder of 4.7e-05.
